Gone are the days when “unplug” and “unwind” were just hype words. With the intrusion of the new normal (be it the everyday struggle between balancing work life or the constant news updates that narrate the terrible tales of mis-happenings around the world), these words are starting to hold a meaning in every individual’s daily life.

This might be the time to battle our toughest battles but it’s also the time to remind ourselves that “it’s only a phase” or “change is the only thing that’s constant”. It’s the time to focus on solutions, than the problems. It’s the time to stop, rewind and work towards a better tomorrow.

So, gear up to get rid of the troubles, the anxiety, the stress and everything that does not give you peace of mind as Ciceroni lists down the 8 best mindfulness apps that can reboot your mind with ease in the turbulent times of 2020.
